Spain: Alfred & Amaia to premiere the official videoclip of Tu canción on 9 March

TVE, the Spanish national broadcaster has confirmed that the official videoclip of the 2018 Spanish Eurovision entry Tu canción will be released on Friday 9 March.

Alfred & Amaia will be releasing the official videoclip of their Eurovision entry Tu canción on Friday 9 March during a special presentation show on TVE 1. The show will be hosted by Roberto Leal, OT 2017 host. The final and revamped version of the song will be premiered on prime time.

About the videoclip

Amaia & Alfred will be portraying their love in their Eurovision entry’s videoclip. The concept of the videoclip is about first love, showcasing the freshness and innocence of young lovers, the first encounters of a couple.

This is the first time that the Spanish duo have recorded a musical videoclip and the video’s producer wants the viewers to feeel the love of the young couple.

The videoclip has been directed by Gus Carballo whilst the 2018 Spanish Eurovision entry has been composed by Raul Gomez.

Gus Carballo says:

The concept of the video clip is about the first time, the first encounter, the first love … And what a duo! It is the first time that the kids make a video clip and it was very important that they do not lose their freshness or innocence, which they have to transmit, along with the experiences that they are living!

Spain in Eurovision

Spain debuted at the Eurovision Song Contest in 1961 with Conchita Bautista and has won the competition twice in 1968 (Massiel) and 1969 (Salome). The country successfully hosted the 1969 Eurovision Song Contest in Madrid when four countries ended up winning the contest.

Spain has not missed a single contest since its debut in 1961 and has participated religiously in the competition every year.

The country has achieved poor results in the competition in recent years and has not achieved a top 5 placing since 1995 when Anabel Conde placed 2nd in Dublin.
